    Nice graphics, sounds, more buildings, but there's not enough action for me.

    Beautiful graphics, the zoom function is cool, and the AI is smart. It will respond rather good to your reactions or, toddling around will take initiative. Makes you want to win in all sorts of ways in the same scenarios.

    Always the enemies are faster than you and have more resource than you.

    An improvement on 3 but not a lot different or harder for the next edition there needs to be big to make it worthwhile.

    Even with the improved graphics and the addition of some new units and the Dark Tribe, the game just boils down into a repetitive jumble of micro-management that didn't have any really interesting catches or scenarios to keep me hooked.

    It's the best in the series and possibly one of the best real time strategy games around. However if you own "Settlers III" then this is more like an upgrade than a whole new game.

    Certainly the best representative of its series and genre. Its charm will surely attract even the players, which are not too keen on strategies.
